Ben Gilbert(@BigBossBgilbert): Between bouts of run/prone/run/prone/run/prone/shoot in Battlefield 3's beta, I'll be sinking time into the currently on sale Outland and trying to figure out why people prefer the Kinect control option in Child of Eden (spoilers: I won't figure it out because it's not very fun using the Kinect to play Child of Eden).

Christopher Grant (@ChrisGrant): I'm actually splitting my time between the long-since released Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack the Ripper and the not-yet released Rage, which I think balances out quite nicely. If I'm not playing one of those, I should probably check out Horde and Beast modes in Gears of War 3, eh?

David Hinkle (@DaveHinkle):The playoffs kick off this weekend (that's sports, you guys) so I'm kinda pumped for that. In my downtime, I'll be playing mostly Gears of War 3 -- eh, who am I kidding? That's all I'm going to play.

JC Fletcher(@jcfletcher): I can't break out of this Wizorb habit. I assure you, the developers of Wizorb had nothing to do with that joke.

Jess Conditt (@JessConditt): I'm going to a strip club for the first time this weekend. I realize that's not a game, but I can't really think about anything else right now.

Jordan Mallory (@Jordan_Mallory): After discovering that the local arcade has a custom-built Mortal Kombat kabinet, I'll be spending the weekend reteaching myself how to play Ermac and Kitana on a fight stick.
